Sydney Snake Catchers

This was something a little different.
We catch Diamond Pythons right throughout the year, but to find one in the middle of winter that had only just eaten a large meal is pretty unusual.

A collection of "designer" snakes once valued at more than $20,000 has been dumped in a park in Sydney's west.

They were discovered in Werrington this week by a reptile handler who was investigating a tip-off about dead snakes.

While the carcasses were not unusual in appearance, the keen-eyed bushwalker had noticed they were not native to the area and had called for help.

Rob Ambrose, a veteran handler at Sydney Snake Catcher, said after examining photos of the animals, he was "mystified" and decided to venture into the park.

Worrying theory emerges as $20,000 ‘designer’ animal collection dumped in Aussie suburb "Appalling" is how the situation has been described by an expert in the field.

A red-bellied black snake, possibly the largest ever recorded, was found in Glenhaven, Australia. The snake, measuring 1.945 metres, was donated to the Australian Museum and confirmed to be the largest in its collection.
